Tilly is beautiful and melancholy. Everyone she meets falls in love with her. Then one day...she is suddenly happy. And things get very strange.

For the final production of 13P's 13-play mission as a company, Sarah Ruhl (P#13) transforms her old play into a new chamber piece with composer Todd Almond. An unexpected story of melancholy in a post-pharmaceutical world, Melancholy Play is an irrational play with a highly rational string quartet.
